Procrastinator-Friendly Gifts That’ll Arrive by Christmas That Don’t ~Look~ Last-Minute
Since I can remember, I’ve literally done all of my holiday gift shopping on Christmas Eve, and there have been a few anxiety-inducing occasions when I’ve forgotten someone on my list on Christmas Day altogether. Fortunately, thanks to the advent of online shopping, if you happen to find yourself in this rather unfortunate situation this year, you’re not completely shit out of luck. As a bona fide anti-holiday person with a penchant for procrastinating, I’ve become pretty well-versed in the art of finding the best last-minute gifts that can save the day in a pinch — even in an Uber while on your way to your family’s Christmas (or whichever holiday you honor and celebrate) dinner.
Obviously, making a mad dash into your local grocery store (because frankly, that’s all that will be open) to get your hands on a generic gift card is an option, but believe me, there are plenty of other easy and quick gifting options that will actually make it look like you put some effort into — even if you most certainly did not. Sure, there are plenty of solid online and digital gifting options that you can send instantly online via email, but if you’re still seeking a tangible gift to ship out or gift IRL, you still have a few options left if you act fast. In fact, many e-tailers are even offering free expedited shipping this weekend to rescue the last-minute shoppers out there. Below, we’ve rounded up a few thoughtful holiday gifts that will arrive before Christmas that don’t actually suck.
